Abstract: Emittance Measurement at LUXThe LUX beamline is a novel laser-plasma accelerator, built in closecollaboration of the University of Hamburg and DESY, and dedicatedfor the generation of laser-plasma driven undulator radiation. After thelaser-plasma target the electron beams are focused by a quadrupoledoublet before entering the undulator to produce soft x-rays at few nmwavelength. The beamline is equipped with a series of standard acceleratordiagnostics. However, due to shot-to-shot fluctuations of the electron beamproperties single-shot diagnositcs are required to characterize the beam,and further complicated by the 1 mrad level beam divergence and percent-levelbeam energy spread. We discuss our beam diagnostics concepts for LUX, includingemittance measurements, and present first measurements.
